Best Workout Tracker Apps UK (2026), Compared

By Alex Lawrence, qualified nutritionist · Fact-checked against sources on 30 October 2026 · Updated 30 October 2026

For most UK lifters, Hevy is the strongest free all-rounder, Strong is the most established logbook, Boostcamp is best for free ready-made programmes, Fitbod is best if you want workouts planned for you, JEFIT is best for watch and web access, and Get Gains is best if you’re on Android and want workouts, calories and supplements in one app. There’s no single best workout tracker app: the right one depends on your phone, your budget and whether you want to plan your own training.

We make Get Gains, one of the six apps below, so weigh our view accordingly. We compared every app from its own website and UK App Store listing on 30 October 2026, and we say exactly how in the method section. We did not test the apps hands-on.

The UK prices are from each app’s UK App Store listing, except Get Gains, which sells through Google Play. App Store listings often show several prices for the same plan, including older ones, so the price you’re offered in the app may differ.

Hevy

Hevy is a free, logging-first workout tracker with a social feed and the widest device support on this list.

Free plan: unlimited logged workouts, up to 4 routines and 7 custom exercises, and graphs for the last 3 months.
Price: the UK App Store lists Hevy Pro at £2.99 a month, £23.49 a year or £74.99 lifetime.
Platforms: iOS, Android, Apple Watch, Wear OS and the web.
Strengths: a generous free plan, a cheap lifetime option, a social feed you can switch off, and a Strong CSV import.
Weaknesses: free graphs only go back 3 months, and its site doesn’t describe any food tracking.
Best for: most people who want a free gym log on any phone.

Strong

Strong is a long-running, focused workout logbook with a strong reputation on iPhone and Apple Watch.

Free plan: workout logging that Strong says will always be free, with up to 3 workout templates.
Price: Strong’s site doesn’t publish a price and says prices vary by region. The UK App Store lists PRO at prices including £4.99 a month and £99.99 for “Strong PRO Forever”.
Platforms: iPhone, Android and Apple Watch.
Strengths: a polished app with a 4.9 out of 5 rating from about 24,000 UK App Store ratings, supersets, RPE, Siri Shortcuts and CSV export.

Fitbod

Fitbod plans your workouts for you, using what its site calls a “proprietary algorithm” that learns from your logged sessions.

Free plan: a 7-day free trial rather than an ongoing free plan.
Price: the UK App Store lists £14.99 a month and £99.99 a year, among other older prices. Fitbod’s own site shows $15.99 a month or $95.99 a year in US dollars.
Platforms: iOS and Android, with Apple Watch and Wear OS companion apps.
Strengths: generated sessions that adapt to you, and integrations with Apple Health, Fitbit, Health Connect and Strava.
Weaknesses: no long-term free plan, and it doesn’t track calories directly.

JEFIT

JEFIT is a long-established tracker with a large exercise library, watch apps on both platforms and a web log-in.

Free plan: 2 plans, up to 7 custom exercises, 10 Instant Workout generations and 3 watch sessions.

Best for: people who want a watch app on Android or iPhone and like logging from a computer too.

Boostcamp

Boostcamp is a workout tracker built around a large library of ready-made programmes, many from known coaches.

Free plan: the programme library and tracker are free, with no cap on how many programmes you run or build. Its site lists 14,000+ programmes.
Price: the UK App Store lists Boostcamp Pro at £14.99 and £59.99, matching the $14.99 a month and $59.99 a year on its site, plus other offers.
Platforms: iOS and Android. It says it doesn’t currently have an Apple Watch or Wear OS app.
Strengths: the most structured training you can get for free, plus RPE logging, rest timers and PR boards.
Weaknesses: no watch app, and Pro features such as auto progression and personalised programmes cost more per month than Hevy or Strong.
Best for: anyone who wants to follow a proven programme without paying.

Get Gains

Get Gains is our app: a workout tracker that also logs food and supplements, so you don’t need a separate calorie counter.

Free plan: workout, nutrition and body-weight logging, a food database with barcode scan, progress charts, PBs and 1RM, supplement tracking with reminders, and up to 3 routines and 5 custom exercises.
Price: Pro is £10.99 a month or £109.99 a year and adds AI tools such as Snap Meal photo logging and AI workouts. Titan is £17.99 a month or £144.99 a year, with a 7-day free trial, and adds Gains Coach (an AI coach with memory), adaptive TDEE and wearable sync through Health Connect.
Platforms: Android only, on Google Play. iOS is coming soon.
Strengths: training, calories and supplements in one free app with no ads, priced in pounds.
Weaknesses: no iPhone or watch app yet, it’s newer than every other app here, its free plan has fewer custom exercises than Hevy or JEFIT, it can’t import history from another app, and its paid plans cost more than Hevy or Strong.
Best for: Android users who’d otherwise run a gym app and a calorie counter side by side.

How we compared these apps

We compared each app from its own website, help centre and UK App Store listing on 30 October 2026. We did not install or test the apps hands-on, and nobody paid to be included.

For each app we recorded:

Free plan limits, from the company’s own pricing, FAQ or help pages.
Price in pounds from the UK App Store where shown, and the company’s own website price (often in US dollars) where it lists one.
Platforms, from the company’s own site.
Strengths and weaknesses, limited to things the company’s own pages state.

We picked these five because they are established strength-training trackers that people often compare, then added our own. Every source is listed at the bottom of the page. Prices and features change, so we’ll recheck this page at least every six months. If you spot something out of date, tell us and we’ll fix it.
